Prince Harry Denies Attempts to Upstage Prince William

The Duke of Sussex has rejected claims that he intentionally tried to overshadow his older brother, Prince William, by announcing a pseudo-royal visit to Canada simultaneously with William’s Earthshot Prize tour in Brazil.

Royal Expert Calls the Clash “Predictable”

One royal expert described the timing as “predictable,” but Harry’s spokesman dismissed any suggestion of sibling rivalry. Instead, they explained the timing was due to differences in security arrangements.

"He is not afforded the same level of security and protection as other working members of the Royal Family."

The spokesman added,

"It means therefore, that the period of time in which we can release details of events is much more truncated than it is for His Majesty the King or the Prince of Wales."
